    Suggestion for Tomorrow = what's more patriotic that GWB singing U2 . [TL: Thanks, and please use the html for the links, instructions in comments box, otherwise they skew the site. I fixed this one.]

    Suggestions for tomorrow? At the risk of picking the obvious... The Star-Spangled Banner - Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock!

    Anything from "Volunteers" by Jefferson Airplane. Look what's happening out in the streets Got a revolution Got to revolution Hey I'm dancing down the streets Got a revolution Got to revolution Ain't it amazing all the people I meet Got a revolution Got to revolution One generation got old One generation got soul This generation got no destination to hold Pick up the cry Hey now it's time for you and me Got a revolution Got to revolution Come on now we're marching to the sea Got a revolution Got to revolution Who will take it from you We will and who are we We are volunteers of America Happy Independence day all.

    Che, that's one of my favorite songs of all time, I have both the studio version and the Woodstock version on my iPod. There's another line in one of the versions that says: One generation got ahead One generation went to bed

    For something slightly more meditative, Van Morrison "Almost Independence Day", which goes well with "Listen To The Lion".
